April 22, 2010 – the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day. It has been forty years since the first Earth Day was celebrate on April 22, 1970. I think it is nice that we have a day for the earth, but I also believe that we should celebrate the earth every day.
I believe that the life we have created with all of the packaging, electronics, and modern conveniences ensures that we are unintentionally a little wasteful, but if we ALL do little things to help it can add up. So this day, which is celebrated on April 22, 2010 around the world, is set out to bring consciousness to our lives.
Here is a video that was shared on Twitter (by @jfouts) and I think it just goes to show that EVERYBODY can do their part to help our beautiful planet.
Are you doing anything special or different than you do every other day to celebrate Earth Day? Post a comment and let me know.
